Sweep Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 I can report that Costa Rica is amazing I really fancy going there, it's certainly on the list, but it's not particularly cheap to get to is it? Quote
Youri McAnespie Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 If you go on Saturday you can fly... Manchester - Puerto Vallarta (Thomson £299 Return) Puerto Vallarta - Mexico City (Viva Aerobus $113 Return) Mexico City - San Jose (Interjet $495 Return) So just under eight hundred quid, door-to-door - bargain.

Sweep Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 And only carry-on luggage . There's probably a good 5 or 6 meals in there as well. A bargain. Quote
Youri McAnespie Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 And two litres of spirits for £20 onboard the first flight, so you'll be guaranteed to arrive fresh as a daisy. Alternatively you can take the boring route direct from Gatwick - £692 Return. https://www.britishairways.com/travel/fx/public/en_gb?eId=111054&data=F100LF230320171110BA2237MLGWSJOT050420171730BA2236MSJOLGWF&p=GBP691.82&e=FE&c=M&source=FareQuoteEmail&isEmailHBOFareQuote=true&utm_source=LGW.SJO.flightsearch&utm_medium=com&utm_campaign=googleflightsearch&DM1_Channel=TS&DM1_Campaign=googleflightsearch&DM1_CD=LGWSJORT I'm such a bellend I'd have probably already booked the first option without even considering the alternatives...

L/H White Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 The Vegas resort tax is well annoying, we didn't even realise we had to pay it until we checked out last time. I refused to pay it, so they called the police So I had to pay it, it was written in the smallest of small print on my booking confirmation. I'd never paid it on my previous 3 visits hopefully i win big and i will just chuck it at them in $ coins Quote
Guest Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 I really fancy going there, it's certainly on the list, but it's not particularly cheap to get to is it? We paid about £600 return Is that cheap? Quote
Sweep Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 We paid about £600 return Is that cheap? Yes, I reckon that is cheap. I thought it would be more expensive than that for flights tbh Quote
Big E Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 where from, BD and who with Sure he said Manchester and his wife Quote
Guest Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 where from, BD and who with We were onto it late, so ended up Driving to Heathrow, to Madrid then San Jose ( not that one, the other one) But if we had gone gatwick to San Jose direct, it looked like a similar price Quote
Winchester White Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 anyone know anymore on this going in May booked a place in Brooklyn on AirBNB for 5 nights there are shitloads of places on there so folk must be getting away with it, or it's business as usual just got it in my head now it may go tits up so might be worth booking a back up hotel, but one where I could cancel say like the day before or on the day or something, if you can even do that without getting stung I assume you will land around lunch time so should be at your apartment by early afternoon. If it turns out shit you will have a few hours to get a hotel somewhere, lets be honest there is plenty of choice! I am fairly sure you will be fine though. Quote
Salford Trotter Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 We have planned a few days in Puerta Banus later this month. Got a cracking half board deal at the H10 hotel Quote
Traf Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 I'm off to Kenya in 3 weeks time, despite Jules Darby saying it's a load of shit. Quote
jayjayoghani Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 3 weeks in Blighty booked. Ticking off bucket list items such as Peterborough at home and possibly playoffs. Plus The Vaults and the incomplete Bus Station. They'd started working on that before I left over 3 years ago. Quote
Sweep Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 I'm off to Kenya in 3 weeks time, despite Jules Darby saying it's a load of shit. AFH Quote
jules_darby Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 I'm off to Kenya in 3 weeks time, despite Jules Darby saying it's a load of shit.I'm sure it was just our individual circumstances rather than Kenya always being "a load of shit" Quote
Zico Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 I'm sure it was just our individual circumstances rather than Kenya always being "a load of shit" It will always full of blacks though Quote
Traf Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 I'm sure it was just our individual circumstances rather than Kenya always being "a load of shit" Too easy. It's not even a sport anymore Quote
Traf Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 AFH Yes, mate. My first since last October half-term. Might only get 8 weeks away next year after the heinous Tory plans to financially assault us honest hard working self-employed types. Quote
C86 Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Swapped Iceland at easter to Madrid (tomorrow), Malaga in May, Lanzarote Sept, Malaga Oct, Fuerteventura at Xmas. Still got four days left to use up. Quote
Smiley Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) Stumbled across Gran Canaria flights for £65 return, going this Monday. Mrs can't go though, has an appointment on Wednesday! FFS! Contemplating a long weekend in Malaga instead now. Any recommendations? I can vouch for Costa Rica. Superb place! Did a coast-to-coast trip with everything in-between. Our flights outbound went via San Juan on Puerto Rico - dropped off a load of cruise folk and then continued. We got 3/4 of the plane to ourselves. Edited March 10, 2017 by Smiley Quote
